Time for the letter G
This weekend take time to make a cuppa settle back and enjoy some blogs from another section of the big blog list. We are now up to the letter G.

I would have preferred to find a contact email for you as I feel completely off topic at this point, but I found a reference for your TIF and then visited your blog and see all these wonderful links. I'm primarily a tatter but also do other stitching crafts and have since I was a young girl. I just wanted to say, besides being appreciative of your blog and what your inspiring, that I hope your TIF continues in one form or another and I can take the opportunity to give it a go myself then.

Thank you for these great blog lists! My Google Reader is bursting :)
I have been meaning to leave you a comment for a long time. Its really because of you I found flickr,which I have loved for quite a time,and it opened up the whole world of blogs and all these lovely people..and I found you on the Embroiderers Guild links a long time ago.Thank you for all the information and inspiration you give to so many.So even though I don't do much handstitching, and don't visit your blog often, you are there at the foundation of my online life! (I'm sorry that must seem so sycophantic..but I do mean it!)
Just found myself here via Grains in the Wind. Thanks for the mention.
